SOAP SUDSER.

Application filed February 12, 1921. Serial No. 444,584.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ALroNso A. BANKS, a citizen of the United States, and resident of borough of Manhattan. county oi? New York, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soap Sudsers.

This inventio relates to improvements in sea sudsers, and:

its principal object is to provide a dev ce tor utilizing small pieces of soap which have become worn to such a degree as to be useless for ordinary purposes.

Another object of the invention is to provide a device which can be easily and cheaply constructed of sheet metal and which when filled with soap scraps may be used to create suds in a dish pan or other receptacle. i titill another objectof the invention is to provide a device having a. screw top so that access to the interior may be readily had tor the replacing ot the soap as it becomes dissolved.

l Vith these and other objects in view, the drawing is a perspective view of this improved soap sudser, illustrating the device ready for use.

Referring to the dawings in detail, the numeral 5, illustrates in its entirety this improved sudser. comprising a cylindrical body, 6 provided at its bottom with a permanent cover 7, and having arranged in its sides a plurality of rows of perforations.

The upper end of the body 6, is provided with a plurality of screw threads for cooperation of the threads 9 oi" the removable cover 1.0, to which is riveted or otherwise secured a handle, 1].

In use, the cover is unscrewed irom the body 6 and such soap scraps as may be avai1- able are then placed within the body, after which the cover is replaced. be obvious that by grasping the handle, 11 and shaking the device, in a vessel containing water, the rapid passage of the water through the perforations 8, will cause same to impinge against the soap contained therein so that as the water passes out of the device it will carry with it a certain portion of the soap held in suspension. and through the aerating of the water by the rapid agitation of the sudser, it is quite obvious that a foam will be formed by the soap in the water.

While in the foregoing there has been shown and described. a preferred embodiment of this invention, it is to be understood that certain minor changes in the d etails of construction, combination and ar-' rangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.

What is claimed is An article of the class described, comprising a toraminous cylindrical container to receive soap and also provided with a removable cap in screw threaded connection with the top of the body of the container and by taking off which, soap can be introduced into the container and a handle for immersing in water the container and the soap therein and agitating it while in the water the handle being rigidly connected directly with the cap practically centrally thereof, said handle also functioning to turn the cap for its removal or application.

Signed at New York, in the county and State of New York. this 7th day o'i February 1921. I
